Optimization of Global Vaccine Supply Chain Report

Abstract

In
the next decade, at least twelve additional vaccines that target such diseases
as typhoid, malaria, and dengue will become available to lower- and
middle-income countries. These vaccines must travel along what are called
supply chains, which include all personnel, systems, equipment, and activities involved
in ensuring that vaccines are effectively delivered from the point of
production to the people who need them. But for various reasons, supply chains
are already strained in many developing countries, and the potential inability
to distribute new vaccines will place lives at risk. Among the many steps
needed to strengthen the global vaccine supply chain, we suggest that the
international community pursue improved coordination between organizations that
donate and ship vaccines and the host-country officials who receive and
distribute the vaccines, as well as better training for supply-chain managers.

Objective of the study

To
optimize the global vaccine supply chain

Methodology

Secondary
data is collected from various existing data available on the internet database
